The Ferdiad Cycle

Sons of Morrigna

" I knew once a soul desperate and wealthy enough to hire the Sons. Sure, the intended victim was sent to Tír na-Slinn quick enough. But so were his bodyguards, family and all eight hunting dogs! When came the time to pay for the deed the poor sod was clueless enough not to pay proper homage to the Lady of Crows. Sure enough he was later found hanging from a lamp post missing his head and his heart torn out. Believe me: stick to the local thugs, don’t get mixed up with those loony cultist. "

Of all the bands of contract killers none are as vague and feared as the Sons of Morrigna. A mix of an order of assassins and a religious cult, the Sons are fanatic followers of the war goddess Morrigna. They see themselves as the cullers of the weak and unworthy and regularly decline jobs that don’t match some of their deranged ideals. Their services are very expensive and few dare to contact them but none can deny their effectiveness.

The Sons are experts of close combat and hold no fear of dying in battle. All their marks are killed in the most spectacular ways possible and always in public. They can be identified by their signature headwear: masks carved to resemble that of a head of a crow, the symbol of Morrigna the Warmaiden.
